Icon 2.0 rear shocks

Just opened up the boxes of my new 2.0 Icon rear shocks and the have rubber shock boots on them, is this normal? Because every site I look at shows no boot, or lists boot in any description

 

Yes. its normal.. i noticed that also when i got them

 

Thanks bro just wanted to make sure I am good FOR MY 3 INCH LIFT INSTALL TOMORROW. Woot woot

 

That's not all that will be 3 inches tomorrow..

 

Congrats!Let us know how you feel about the ride quality!Been considering those for the rear of my Tacoma!Sounds like you scored on the shock boots!I thought Icon charged extra for those!

 

Seriously on the shock boots

 

yes. my magically came with some also

 

Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooa you gotta get some time up in dis biatch to talk to me like dat.

 

What are you doing to your leafs to get 3 inches?

 

Leafs will only get the 1.5 inch Progressive Icon leaf pack so it will sit level with the front 3 inch lift

 

This is confusing. A 1.5 AAL will give you 3 inches of lift in the rear?

 

Hey Rick. Before you install, take a real close look at the seal around the shaft (where the boot is covering). I installed my brake lines today from @OCTaco and while I was under the truck I noticed that one of my icons was leaking at the shaft. They're only 4 months old. It's covered under warranty, but annoying that I have to pull it off and sent it in and wait for it to come back again (basically means doing a shock install 3 times). Just something to watch out for. They're great shocks, but same thing happened to a buddy of mine on his icons.

 

Seriously something told me I should have just went with 5100's

 

The icons run really smooth. I got the 2.0 with resi's. Couldn't be happier

 

I'm not knocking the shock. These are actually way better than the 5100s I came from, but you know how it goes: right when you think you're done, there's something else to fix.

 

I think I might buy a set of rear 5100's to have on hand just in case
